Dan Zen has a new front menu in the form of a tree with animated blossoms and leaves. A new signature totem logo is at left and the tree grows from the Node Zero logo from Nodism.
This menu was planned about 3 years ago. The previous Deck of Creations from 2005 has been moved to Creations under the Fun branch of the tree. The deck was designed to accommodate any number of features. This can sometimes be a bad design as there is less intensive to update.
The new design reveals a shift in focus for Dan Zen over the last 5 years from game and gadget features to a wide range of areas. The occasional game has been made but the main focus has been on the following topics:
PHILOSOPHY
Nodism Philosophy of Connection
Environmental Ideas
MUSIC
Thee Gnostics – Psychedelic Space Rock Band

Focuso – Out of Focus Photography

I’m liking the new menu. The intro animation is lovely and I like the shift in direction of the site to better represent the many branches of your work.

Branches… funny! 😉 I am going to put some feature icons around the site if there is room in people’ browser windows – thanks for the comment Amy!
